Anyone else see an opportunity to short facebook after the expected pop?

No doubt a risky trade. But if jumps it will be extremely over valued.

Would've been a good idea for LinkedIn in hindsight

The question is: How? No options for the first week, no institutional shares to borrow for shorting, etc.

FIFY.

Good point, No doubt it won't be easy. I know Etrade is getting an allotment of shares but shares available for borrow will probably be very limited. And I would bet one could get easily called on those shares with as many trades are going to take place.
